  • Hi all.. May 17. is the Norwegian constitutional day, and unlike most countries this is celebrated by children and kids going around in parades, eating unhealthy stuff, and playing, rather than military parades and stuff like that. The celebration is in rememerabce of May 17 1814 when Norway wrote and started to enforce our own constiturion. This is a national holiday :) Relaxing :)

    Since I know that there are norwegians hanging here that are abroad now, like Abaddon who is in China, and the day is very pleasant here, I'll just post a few pics :)

    The parade:

    Some girls in local traditional celebrational outfits, the one to the laft is from part of the country a bit North of where I live, the other 4 are the local traditional outfit with some minor variations:

    Its supposed to be the "children's day", so my old Scout-group arranged some activities for the kids. I had to help out this year too, but it was fun :)

    You know I often use gg for real life too, for something that is well done.

    So it was a happy "thanks for sharing your thoughts and feelings with us" expression from me.

    /on

    gg. :P
